NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–SecurityScorecard today announced the appointment of Sandy Climan, CEO of Entertainment Media Ventures, to its Advisory Board. A distinguished Hollywood figure, his extensive expertise includes executive leadership roles at Universal Studios, MGM, and Creative Artists Agency, cementing his reputation as a trailblazer in the entertainment industry. He has represented A-list stars including Robert DeNiro, Robert Redford, Kevin Costner, and others. His production credits include “The Aviator,” starring Leonardo DiCaprio, and “U23D,” the first digital live-action 3D concert film. Beyond his accomplished Hollywood career, Climan is widely regarded as a media visionary, leveraging his experience as an investor, producer, and advisor to connect Hollywood, Silicon Valley, the financial industry, and global corporations.
Climan said: “Cybersecurity is as important as our blood pressure. It is the safety of the future, yet cyber health is a moving target. SecurityScorecard is breaking barriers with its unique security ratings technology and now redefining how organizations secure their supply chains. I’m thrilled to bring my media expertise to help drive their transformation to push the boundaries further of what’s possible.”
Climan joins SecurityScorecard’s advisory board at a pivotal moment as the company takes the industry from security ratings to Supply Chain Detection and Response (SCDR). The company’s shift to SCDR reflects the evolving needs of cybersecurity practitioners and the growing threat emanating from third-party suppliers/vendors, and ecosystem business partners.
Dr. Aleksandr Yampolskiy, CEO and Co-Founder at SecurityScorecard said: “Sandy is an unparalleled storyteller. His leadership across Hollywood and technology makes him an invaluable addition to our advisory board. His ability to bridge these industries aligns well with our mission to build a more resilient supply chain.”
